Sometimes you just have to take a chance on certain phones, being the FX31, FX40 or something else. That's the only way you're going to find out if you like them or not. If you don't like them, you can always sell them on the classifieds.

The AD900X hurts the top of my ears after about 20 minutes. It's not that bad until about an hour though, but it's still annoying. Am I the only one with this problem?

Yes. Sorry to say that you are a mutant. It's all your fault.

Kidding of course. Have you tried the rubber band mod?

Edit: they don't slide down my head and onto the top of my ears. Therefore, they are the most comfortable headphones that I have. Like marshmallows on the head. But for those with smaller heads, they may slide down. Hence the rubber band mod.

Yeap I think this is the only way to know! I'm just trying to find the best option since everyone has different tastes.

Since you enjoy CKN70 do you find their sound anything near them? I can always burn IEMs!
